1. Mosquito
crawling into my head, mosquito, mosquito red
pieces, diseases, floating in the greases, but they smile instead
sting of the suckerfly
in the dead of the night
ride on the wings of a dragonfly
sleep by the candlelight
sucking the gutter dry
taking flight
now they dance on the open eye
pushing the needle to the tiny bite
watching the circling sun, mosquito, mosquito run
vision of a killing gun
they sing with the voices of the angels son
river is flowing
the bloddy wind is blowing
the reaper they are sowing
and i don't believe that they are going
crawling into my eye, mosquito, mosquito fly
falling from the scientist slide
eating at the walls from behind they hide
2. Lovestone Blind
where does the weather go when i see blue around the gold
circling the atmosphere in california clear ?
where does the time go when today turns into long ago ?
where are all the colors when a rainbow disappears ?
someone's singing today i really don't know, i will never
light the night to make it like the day, it really won't glow
it really won't
never mine i really don't mind i really don't care
i really don't
make a line to make it mind the time, they really won't go
were they ever ?
i stand surrounded here, imaginary interfere
supersonic architecture spanish castle cream
press my hands against my ears to try to make the voices clear
an acrobatic, symphonatic helicopter scream
all that shines will come in time
never mind all that's left behind
lovestone blind, well still is mine
here i find all my peace of mind
how they look into the eyes of a silver screen can of lies
the city streets are the golden cage of the sleeping flies
wings pounding to the concrete dance of the stamping shoes
gold seeping from the hand of the unamused
down through the smoke to the trash scattering the ground
cut through the smell of the sirens screaming from the town
kneeling down to the healing fix of a hyperdermic crucifix
hanging from the choking throats of giant stack of broken bricks
3. Haze One
now we're on the road
the freeze is coming on
everone is sleeping now
the first one to bed, but the last to leave my head
so i burn another number down
and as i'm laying down i'm wondering
where are all the people now
where is all the screaming crowd
and as i bring on what's inside of me
i know it's quite a dream
burn the candle down
as we're pulling out of town
pass the haze around
talk about the show
got another less to go
hey, what did you think about the sound ?
cold november's got me burning down
cold november's got the amber burning down
now me ears are ringing
i don't mind the sound
concerned about my singing
cause the cold can bring it down
east berlin to austria
how much further now ?
i hope it is a long way
i have to sleep before the day
4. Shattered Sky
the universe is in my eye
shattered are the pages of the word
everbody's praying to the nothing in the sky
they cry for what they've laid upon the world
blue for the shattered sky
everybody's looking to the sky
waiting for the rain to pour into their overflowing hands
waiting, waiting
this life is mine
i'm living in my time
you gave, you slaved
you thought that you'd be saved
now you're waiting like the flies
to drag your tongue across my eyes
i claw into my hole all the ashes of my soul
blue for the shattered sky
5. Cold
flashes of the devil's eye
crying at the shadow of the sun
faceless, and godless
the killing floor is only killing me
with the sream of the morning cold
faces, and gazes
dancing through the mazes of the sky
they steal the breath of the sleeping dogs
to steam the great machine and start the ride
shaking, and breaking
with the silence of a stranger passing by
with the breath of the morning cold
just like the death of the morning cold
6. All The Voices
follow me into the sun
they're calling me into the sun
flow through the air, will you follow me there
follow me into the sun
all of my friends will be with me again
won't you follow me into the day
running our hands through silica sand
is only a daydream away
all of my friends will be with me again
follow me into the day
open the eyes of your mind
won't you open the eyes of your mind
all of my friends will be with me again
follow me into the blind
follow me into the sun
they're calling me into the sun
flow through the air, will you follow me there
follow me into the sun
all of my friends will be with me again
no need to live under the gun
7. Dancing In The Ashes
i see it coming back around
i see it coming all down
i see the future is red
i see the innocent are laying dead
they cover the dead where they're laying
until the battle is won the war has just begun
burning like a hell, goddamn
it's just a different time and another kind of vietnam
burning fire, we are going to burn in the fire
we're gonna burn it high
can you hear all the lies
that try to cover their cries
the hell is more real than the television can make it feel
keep the war machine fed
try cover your head
just think of god as a gun
this is the freedom that you've won
the skyline is glowing
and the fire is growing
this is the world that we live in
the only gift is that we're giving in
blind by the flashes
now we're dancing in the ashes
singing god is a gun
this is the freedom that you've won
8. Only Time
well it's only time
when the sun shines let your bullets fly like rain
let 'em fly, let 'em fly like rain
well it's only time
i can?t taste the morning
when the rays of the killing sun won't shine
blue as the wind, blew it all, blew it all the time
i see the sky burning red
burning inside of you
so let it rain down hard
let it break on through
i see your world, i see your sees
and i know what's going to be left
when you leave what you leave for me
you'll be pulling me down
don't lay down when the sun shines
9. Locked Down
locked down, locked it tight
you better wrap it tight around, you better lock it by midnight
look down you better hit the ground
you're gonna shake it and move it
'till the world is just a big round city
look out today, when the bullet flies
you better hide, you better pray
get out, get out while you can
better lock it down, better lock it down, lock it man
cause we're gonna break the chain
shot down, laying cold to the ground
just another dead, bang! just another two walk around
this town is burning down with a cold from the inside
the blood of suicide
the word "respect" lets you hide
if you ride your pride you're justified
time flies by, you'll ride you're high
and the life that you try is just another damn drive by
locked down, lock it tight
you better wrap it round again
you better lock it before the night
look down, hit the ground
we're gonna shake it and move it
'till the man has been knocked down
look out today, when the bullet fly you're gonna die
you're gonna pay
get out, get out while you can
better lock it down, better lock it down, lock it man
10. Mindsong / Darkness (Hidden Track)
yesterday i gazed into the sky
stared into the sun
the stars up high
somehow fell into my eye
and then they'd fade away
father of oblivion
take me out of this place
this is a world of despair
their meager grasps at simplicity
promise a peace that will never be
somehow the vision faded away
somehow the decision
turned and walked the other way
a little taste of glory
a pocket of fame
i guess the song that's in my head
really don't remain the same
bring the dawn, bring on
bring the day
sing it long, won't you sing on
it's just a state of mind away
bringer of the bird song
color the gray
let the rain onto my head
let it wash it all away
sleeping through the darkness
dreaming of the day
where purple rain an sugarcane
let me know i'm on my way
into a dream i was flying
feeling like i'd been chased away
i took to the air like an angel in flight
to the sky of another day
i had a dream i was dying
feeling like i'd been chased away
i took to the air like an angel in flight
to the sky another day
i had a dream i was dying
shot me in the head i felt no pain
i just remember i was waiting for something
something that never really came
